Link: http://music-mix.ew.com/2012/0 2/08/lana-del-rey-born-to-die- album-sales/ Lana Del Rey 's album Born To Die was widely panned by the peons of the Corrupt Indie Machine . However, it seems like she 'effing killed it', using the 'tank on SNL' marketing strategy 2 cruise her way to the #2 spot in America. She sold 77k albums in the United States. People constantly debate whether the phrase, "All publicity is good publicity," actually has any credence, but in the case of Lana Del Rey , the [...]
For months, I've been telling all my friends that ska legends Madness would be announcing a northern California date the week of April 16th. How could I be so sure? For years, The Coachella Festival has provided a bounty of shows in its wake. This year was bound to be a banner crop of shows [...]
Perla a ritmo ska nel cast di Rock in Idrho 2012 che annuncia il nome degli Specials . Riconosciuta tra i massimi esponenti dello Ska insieme ai Madness , la storica band di "A message to you Ruby" sarà a Milano il 21 luglio per un concerto all'insegna del puro divertimento, nella line up del festival che vede i Rancid come headliner della giornata. Annunciato oggi anche l'apertura delle prevendite, fissata per venerdì 10 febbraio alle ore 10 attraverso i canali abituali, e di cui verrano [...]
The name may well ring a bell. That's most probably due to Missing Andy's success on Sky 1's "Must Be The Music" last year. Or it could simply be because you've been listening out for the rare Top 40 hit that isn't simply a big name performing atop a shallow dance beat, but is instead music made and crafted, attempting to convey some sort of message. In the band's own words "No one is speaking up for our generation." Vigilantism was however set aside for the support acts, the notable, and local, Tales Of George most definitely ensured [...]
This April nearly 80,000 people will land near Indio, California once again for a sold out Coachella. To get you prepared and pumped we've made this playlist.
I can't think of a more overlooked local release last year than Sick Figures' Two Ghosts . The album seemed to have a lot going for it—it was a record buoyed by dark wit and an air of accessibility that allowed the group to dig deep into a punk cabaret/vaudeville/saloon rock aesthetic without sounding pretentious or overbearing. The songwriting was inventive and there was plenty of spirited energy to drag the listener in. Why the record didn't warrant more discussion among local music lovers, I'll never know. The group's latest single, "Mad," plays comfortably [...]
When Paige and I first met in 1985, our music tastes were definitely criteria for our future friendship. She was a Madness, Echo & the Bunnymen, English Beat girl; I was Depeche Mode, New Order and anything KROQ was playing in Los Angeles before my move to the bay area. I think this photo was [...]

Anthony Hamilton's appeal isn't only his raspy strong warm voice, which he's applied to songs of wistful soul longing to great effect. It's also the Grammy winner's clear devotion to packing real quality and feeling into his music. The only fluff here is maybe in your pillows before you lie back and enjoy the ear-massaging groove. It's nice mostly smooth sailing on Back To Love (RCA) with a few electric jolts scattered throughout. Hamilton desires and lusts and aches but is a refined, restrained gentleman who doesn't need to get vulgar to make a [...]

The Flaming Lips have again planned a massive New Year's concert extravaganza in their hometown of Oklahoma City, OK. Two Fantastical Nights! Would you expect anything less? Tiny Mix Tapes writes: "yeah, they're doing two shows this year, December 31 and January 1, at the Bricktown Events Center in Oklahoma City. Oh, and speaking of tiring, they're bringing Yoko Ono's Plastic Ono Band with them. According to their publicist, the band is going to "pull out all the stops with MORE of everything" (then there's an exclamation point at the end of [...]

Well, some of it's interesting Mr. Gnome are a Cleveland-based duo made up of Nicole Barille on vocals and guitar and Sam Meister on drums and occasional keyboards. The songs often feel like the product of a tension between the two -- with Barille's swoopy little-girl voice pulling into dreamy pop territory and Meister's clockwork pounding lending a harder edge. Mr. Gnome is not a band that find a groove and sticks with it. Tunes like "We Sing Electric" start...
When Adam Ant penned the line 'ridicule is nothing to be scared of', the chances of many people pouring such scorn on his endeavours were slim. In the space of two short years he had gone from being a sleazy, post-punk rocker to the status of the biggest pop star in the UK by a mile. Thirty years later and the outcome of Ant stepping onto a stage, a fifty-seven year old man in full pirate get-up, is not so clear cut. A dwindling solo and acting career behind him, as well as a very public battle with [...]
After delivering several albums with flashes of brilliance but a lack of consistency, mr. Gnome have taken their biggest stride with Madness in Miniature, their third full-length album. Their previous two carried a common plague, where style reigned over substance as memorable hooks failed to form with over-active arrangements or superfluous stylistic pursuits. When mr.

Vous l'avez compris, nos invités, l' Ironie Du Son , verniront leur dernier album , Maquey blues , enregistré dans les hauteurs alpines. « Une musique acoustique, libre, douce, inspirée par les musiques traditionnelles, le blues, l'improvisation et le silence » ira à la conquête du Bibarium Pour les nostalgiques, les jazzmen du Fanfareduloup Orchestra s'attaqueront une fois de plus à la réorchestration de standards, de Quincy à John Barry. Explosif et joyeux, le groupe ce produira le jeudi 17 novembre à l' Alhambra . [...]
